It is possible to nest a bulleted-unnumbered list into a higher numbered list.
But in the bulleted-unnumbered list the automatically numbered list will not start: Its is not supported.
- To start a new numbered list after a bulleted-unnumbered one, put a piece of text between them, or a subtitle: A new numbered list cannot start just behind the bulleted: The interpreter will not start the numbering.

in practice

Dog
1. German Shepherd - with only a single space ahead.
2. Belgian Shepherd - max 4 spaces ahead.
  - Number in front of a line interpreted as a "numbering bullet", so making the indentation.
    - ..and ignores the written digit: Places/generates its own, in compliance with the structure.
    - So it is OK to use only just "1" ones, to get your numbered list.
      - Or whatever integer number, even of more digits: The list numbering will continue by increment ++1.
    - However, the first item in the numbered list will be kept, so the first leading will usually be the number "1".
3. Malinois - 5 spaces makes 3rd level already.
  1. MalinoisB - 5 spaces makes 3rd level already.
  2. Groenendael - 8 spaces makes 3rd level yet too.
    1. Tervuren - 9 spaces for 4th level - Intentionaly started by "55".
    2. TervurenB - numbered by "88", in the source code.
Cat
1. Siberian; a. SiberianA - problem reproduced: letters (i.e. "a" here) not recognized by the interpreter as "numbering".
  - No matter, it is indented to its separated line, in the source code.
2. Siamese
  - a. so written manually as a workaround misusing bullets, unnumbered list.

4 spaces do the trick even inside definition list  Endpoint     listAgencies   Method    GET   Arguments        level  - bla-bla         withDisabled  - should we include disabled  AGENT s         userId  - bla-bla   I am documenting API using BitBucket Wiki and Markdown proprietary extension for definition list is most pleasing  MD s table syntax is awful  imaging multiline and embedding requirements
